We want to say that again: Amazon's total profits are ~$5.1 billion. Apple did more than double that in the last three months.

(Amazon's price-earnings ratio is currently a mind-boggling 3,275x. Apple's is 10x. Traditional valuation metrics are obviously pointless for Amazon, but if you were to use Amazon's PE for Apple, the stock would be trading at $144,618 per share, for a market cap of $136 trillion. Those numbers are totally meaningless, but it's funny to think about.)
